California rates 'Terminator man' well!

It seems that the recent California fires have given a boost to the Terminator man's ratings. The people liked the way that he had handled the entire crisis and that he was highly visible amongst the people of California lending them a hand or two here and there.
The people have taken note of the way that the current Californian Governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger was very accessible by the pubic at large and did not sit at home in his huge mansion. He did the best to help the people of California during this crisis but will it be enough to see him in the office again,if not as a Governor of California, at least as a senator of California? Well, that all remains to be seen. But one thing is for sure, his ratings have gone up and at the current level, he is even more popular than George bush!

California still burning hot!


The fires over California are still burning bright and they are going strong in spite of the winds decreasing strength. The wildfires are a common occurrence in the sunshine state of California but this is a bit too extreme even for the Desert enriched state. This year around , CA has had only a small percentage of the annual rain that it gets every year which translates to a very dry ground. Dry ground means dried plants and the perfect situation for the 'hot winds' to form. Hot winds do blast through California on an average of three days or so every year.
But contrary to all previous records, the hot winds blasted through California for a record of 78 days this year and they are on at the moment. Can you imagine having a blazing hot wildfire going on and then to have hot winds blowing up the flame and making it even hotter. It is kind of like the bellows that is used in the smelting of iron, the hot winds only serve to feed the flame and make it even hotter. Today, about 2 bodies were found at a home that was burnt to the ground by the fires. And the flames are still continuing their march of destruction through California.
